    WTF, Helix. Does that mean DCU students will get a presale?

    Grandpa and Lisa Simpson: [singing] “How many roads, must a man walk down…”
    Homer Simpson: Eight!

    Lisa: That was a rhetorical question.

    Homer: Oh. Then seven!

    Lisa: Do you even know what ‘rhetorical’ means?

    Homer: [scoffs] Do I know what ‘rhetorical’ means…

    Wouldn't it be 364/1 unless it's a leap year?

    What's the capacity of the Helix, and can it be configured for a standing area?

    Seems to be 1800, and I'd say it's fixed seating.
    Pity they didnt pick the Grand Canal theatre

    What an odd choice of venue for a band that were meant to be quite high up the bill at Longitude only two years a go :(

    i'd imagine that other venues are already booked for other acts, either announced, or soon to be (probably from the TITP lineup), and this was one of the only ones available...

    Would this gig be worth going to despite the venue?

    Definitely. Saw them twice and they always put on a great lively show. It's probably not the wort venue, it's just not a handy location.

    Turns out the ground floor is standing, which I was surprised about.

    Are the standing tickets gone? I only got into work at about twenty past nine and was able to get one.

    The website is saying limited availability for standing.

    A friend couldn't get standing tickets at about 10 but they seem to have been freeded up again now.

    Everything seems to be gone now. Any chance of more tickets being release or a change of venue?

    There are tickets available now.

    Don't see a change of venue if it does sell out though, where could it go? The o2 is the only venue bigger in Dublin isn't it? Unless they were to move it to one of the outdoor venues, but you'd think they would have all of those booked up by now.

    If you're going to be pedantic at least get it right!!! 364.25/1

    On the venue. I don't think I've ever been to a concert in the Helix. I have seen Modest Mouse in the Radisson in Galway though and thoroughly enjoyed it.
